The members of the Pupil Council would like to thank the Parent Council for the new playground equipment which arrived at the school today. We had great fun unpacking the box before handing over the contents to the Rights Respecting Committee. We are sure that everyone in the school will enjoy using the new equipment.
P6/7 had the delight of experiencing a ‘normal’ school day with a twist. We were invited along to go cruising on The Wooden Spoon canal boat to extend our learning in our Scottish Canals topic. Our skipper, Ronnie (Archie’s grandad), not only told us all about the history of the canal but he allowed us to have a shot at steering the boat and using the locks. On board, we followed our usual class time-table and completed writing, problem solving and art challenges.
Thank you to Ronnie and The Wooden Spoon!!
The members of the Pupil Council would like to thank everyone who helped with the Children in Need fundraising morning on Friday 14th November. The magnificent sum of £288.62 was raised. Winners of the Torphichen ‘Bake Off” competition were Mathew and Kathryn Murphy with their treasure chest cake. Oskar de Joode was placed second and Kirsty and Laura Taylor took third place. The Guess Pudsey’s Birthday competition was won by Grace Samper.
At their recent assembly on Litter, the Eco Committee launched a competition. They would like pupils to design a Litter Awareness Poster – on any theme of interest to them (could be based on the ideas given by the committee at the assembly). The committee will choose a winner from each class and these posters will be laminated and displayed around the school grounds. The winners will also receive a reusable bag/bag for life. GOOD LUCK ALL THOSE WHO ENTER!
Please read our attached flyer. Pupils have been busy making jam and chutney today, using produce from the school garden and the Rights Committee are organising cakes and coffee! Come along please and support these worthwhile charities!
